The Tudor Arms Hotel is a twelve-story Gothic Revival building in the University Circle neighborhood of Cleveland, Ohio, designed by architect Frank B. Meade and completed in 1933. Originally opened as the Cleveland Club in that year, the limestone and brick structure originally featured a swimming pool, bowling alley, library, and two ballrooms. The building hosted notable entertainers and attracted prominent figures including mobster Al Capone during its early years. After closure during the Great Depression in 1939, it reopened as the Tudor Arms Hotel, with one ballroom becoming the Empress Room supper club, which featured performers such as Duke Ellington and Louis Armstrong. The building subsequently served as graduate student housing in the 1950s and housed the Cleveland Job Corps Center from 1971 to 2007. Following its 2007 purchase by developers MRN Ltd, a comprehensive $22 million renovation began in 2011. The hotel was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.
